Eaton Environmental Monitoring Probe ePDU Connectivity Device

(Part Number EMP001)

The optional environmental monitoring probe (EMP) is a connectivity device that enables you to collect temperature and humidity readings in the rack environment and monitor the environmental data remotely via the onboard LCD screen or remotely using a Telnet connection or a standard web browser. You can also collect and retrieve the status of two contact devices.

When temperature and humidity values exceed user-selectable limits, the event is logged in the ePDU event history log.

The EMP monitors temperature and humidity information of any environment that you want to protect your critical equipment. The EMP measures temperatures from 32°F to 158°F (0°C to 70°C) with an accuracy of ±3.6°F (±2°C).

The EMP measures relative humidity from 10% to 90% with an accuracy of ±5%.

It can be located away from the ePDU with a CAT5 network cable up to 65.6 ft (20 m) long.

The hot-swap feature simplifies installation by enabling you to install the probe safely without turning off power to the ePDU or to the loads that are connected to it.

The EMP monitors the status of the two user-provided contact devices.

Temperature, humidity, and contact closure status can be displayed through a web browser, a serial interface, or an onboard LCD interface.
